Don't know if I make that trade. That's a tough one though. You have to factor in Manning's new TE as a target that could steal a few receptions from Garcon and McFadden is definitely coming on.

I don't like it, although I don't know how deep you are at WR or RB. I think Mike Williams is the only reason to pull the trigger, and I wouldn't do it since McFadden is more consistent by nature of being the feature back.

I see the trade as the following:

A stinker(Ocho) for a stinker(Jackson) and a so-so guy(Garcon)
A monster(McFadden) for a pretty good WR(Williams)

You're probably better off dropping and replacing Ocho so that someone else succumbs to the temptation of starting him and get burned by it. I was a victim, although the dropper probably didn't plan on it.

I need to brag right now...Im in a 12 team league that starts 3 wr, 2 rb, 1 qb, and 1 rb/wr

My draft looks like....
round 1. Frank Gore
round 2. Roddy White
round 3. LeSean McCoy
round 4. Arian Foster
round 5. Carson Palmer (picked up vick after week 1)
round 6. Tony Gonzolez
round 7. Terell Owens
round 8. Ladanian Tomlinson
round 9. Kenny Britt (Packaged with Torain to trade for Brandon Marshall)
People I played drafted in later rounds......Mike Williams (out of TB)/NE DEF
And my best move was I got Ryan Torain 1 week before portis got injured anticipating his body would brake down

Best fantasy football season of all time by anyone ever....but I somehow still managed to lose one game so far.

That's one sick draft.

Not bad. Here's one of mine:

Tony Romo
Matt Ryan

Arian Foster
LeSean McCoy
Jamaal Charles

Andre Johnson
Larry Fitzgerald
Hakeem Nicks
Dwayne Bowe
Marques Colston
Mike Williams (TB)
Dez Bryant

Zach Miller (OAK)

(I've lost 3 games)

How many people are in your league? It seems odd that you were able to pick up Foster, Johnson, Fitzy, Colston, Charles, Bowe, Romo, and Nicks all in the first 8 rounds.

edit: just checked both my leagues (12 and 14 ppl in them) and everyone mentioned besides bowe went in the first 3 in both of them...bowe went in the 4th in one and the 5th in the other....

SirClintonPortis · 11-08-2010, 12:48 PM

Eff Todd Haley. Can't use Jamaal Charles as a workhorse for more than 1 week.

That said, Arian the psycho-freaking-insane-wtf-how-the-hell-did-he-do-that Foster is just plain destroying all them RBs this year.

SirClintonPortis · 11-18-2010, 06:27 PM

Jamaal Charles or Arian Foster this week? I'm leaning towards Charles, but Haley will probably still be a bitch and limit his carries.

JoeRedskin · 11-24-2010, 10:59 AM

Okay, so I got the following RB's: M. Turner (must start); Portis, R. Bush & Thomas Jones.

I got burned starting Bush over Jones last week. (Bush game time scratch; Jones 80 yards, 2 TD's). Any suggestions? Go with Bush in Dallas? Jones at the Rams?

MTK · 11-24-2010, 11:03 AM

Bush is definitely going to see some PT on Thurs. How much is the question. I'd avoid him until we have a better idea of where he's at.

JoeRedskin · 11-24-2010, 12:53 PM

That's kinda where I am. Of course, that means he will light it up tomorrow and Jones will get blanked.

BDBohnzie · 11-24-2010, 03:31 PM

Yeah, I'm running a dilemma with Reggie Bush as well, and of course he plays Thursday and not Sunday.

Thomas Jones has been so streaky this year, and Seattle's giving up 105 on the ground per game. Considering he's splitting carries with Jamaal Charles, he's always a tough start.

If your league is PPR, then I'd start Bush. If not, then I'd start Jones.

CRedskinsRule · 11-24-2010, 09:33 PM

Anyone want to offer thoughts on who to start:
Kitna vs New Orleans
Bradford vs Denver

JoeRedskin · 11-24-2010, 10:23 PM

Kitna. Better weapons, better passing scheme. Plus, may become a shoot out.
